Sorrowful Mysteries of the Rosary | New Orleans

[Music] [Applause] hello I'm Bishop Reid thank you for joining me today and praying the sorrowful mysteries of the Most Holy Rosary of the Blessed Virgin Mary in New Orleans I'm standing here in the heart of the French Quarter just behind the Cathedral of st. Louis the Basilica Cathedral which is the Mother Church for the great Archdiocese of New Orleans the sights and the sounds of this historic city this historic place are a backdrop today for us as we meditate on the sorrowful mysteries for this is a city that has experienced great challenge as every city does as every one of us does even these Gardens have been redesigned and maintained by the very same architect as the gardens at Versailles just a little hint as to the history of this place where I stand the city is instantly recognized by its Cathedral in its position overlooking Jackson Square it's triple steeples tower over this historic city and this local church of the Archdiocese of New Orleans this national historic landmark is a true centerpiece to the history of this great place and so what a great place to pray and meditate on these sorrowful mysteries as we say in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit amen I believe in one God the Father the Almighty Creator of heaven and earth and in Jesus Christ His only Son our Lord who was conceived by the Holy Spirit born of the Virgin Mary suffered under Pontius Pilate was crucified died and was buried he descended into hell on the third day he rose again from the dead he ascended into heaven from there he shall come to judge the living and the dead I believe in the Holy Spirit the Holy Catholic Church the communion of saints the forgiveness of sin the resurrection of the body and life everlasting amen our Father who art in heaven hallowed be thy name thy kingdom come thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven give us this day our daily bread and forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us and lead us not into temptation but deliver us from evil

hell lead all souls into heaven especially those who are in most need of thy mercy the first sorrowful mystery that we meditate upon the agony in the garden now this was not a physical agony of course but a mental anguish and perhaps this is equally challenging for us to realize because sometimes the severity of mental anguish is hidden there's no blood there are no broken bones but agony nonetheless this is a city the city of New Orleans some great resilience but also one that has shared a certain agony and perhaps you are agonizing now over some thing or some one something deeply personal let us pray for all those who face agony in their lives as we say our Father who art in heaven hallowed be thy name thy kingdom come thy will be done on earth as it is in heaven give us this day our daily bread and forgive us our trespasses as we forgive those who trespass against us and lead us not into temptation but deliver us from evil amen hail Mary full of grace the Lord is with
